Gym neither they sponsored my exercising equipments, they didn’t even moved from their chairs to help me out. Read on if you really want to know how. So it happened because I lost my driving license. Yes I did. How stupid of me. After having searched it in all the possible places (which include my home, Office cabinet, files where I store papers) I decided it’s time to report the missing license and then apply for a copy from the Authority. It’s hard to live without car. God knows when we will have good public transport system. Anyways I started towards nearest police station, on foot (Yes walking is the only exercise I indulge in). The police station is 1.5 KM from my place. I reached the police station and then the conversation started.
Me: Mera license Kho gaya hai. Uski report likhwani hai (I have lost my license and want to get a report written).
On Duty Officer (ODO): Bhai ji light nahin hai report kaise likhi jayegi? (Brother there is no light how will writing report be possible?) and then he walk few steps.
Me: Koi Aur option hai? (Is there any other option?)
ODO: Tum Bata do. (You tell me)
Me: Agar mein paper par likh kar de doon aur aap us par stamp laga do? (If I write it on paper and you put a stamp on it?)
ODO: Authority wale phir wapas bhej deinge. Hum to yeh chahte hai ki tumahare 6 chakkar na lagein. (Authority guys will send you back. We just wish to save you from 6 trips).
Now I don’t doubt his intentions (or maybe I do). But that doesn’t save me any more trips. It’s actually these trips which help me fulfilling my exercising needs. Now you know how Delhi Ploice is helping me in exercise? By the way did anyone hear about this latest gadget called UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply)? So if Delhi police can afford 1600 Rs. UPS for every computer maybe that saves citizens from some hassle because not many people take walking as their daily exercise regime, like me. May god send them few UPS.
